kabiblueline Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Can anyone help with info on a V6 2000 glove? I've watched the videos and things to be found online. But I just don't have enough experience with equipment to figure out if I will like the break or not. Different manufacturers seem to be all over the map about how to define "break angle", and I don't really have access to local shops with a wide selection to try. It makes it near impossible to buy used stuff online (and my budget doesn't allow for much else). I believe what I prefer is a "baseball style" closure (since I played a ton of baseball as a kid and didn't pickup goal until I was 30). I'm currently using a TPS XLite which I love. Will the V6 be anything like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilzz Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 No idea how it compared to the TPS but here's my input. The Vaughn 2000 will close like a CCM 600 break. This is like hitting your index finger to your thumb. This is also called a 75 degree. This will close extremely similar to a fielders glove. In. contrast, a 60 degree glove break will be sort of like what a 1st baseman's mitt is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Thanks for the shout @southpawtendy48 I actually had 2 of the 1 piece 2200 from this generation, not the 2 piece 2000. I have tried it on several times though and what @Aquilzz said is spot on. Those gloves will be more wide in terms of degree break and definitely close like a thumb - index finger baseball glove.

kabiblueline Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 Thanks for the feedback everyone! It is very helpful. Sounds like the 2000 is probably close to what I am looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
